banki: I didnt know he was a convict, please tell me where he was convicted? I also did not know that the former chief accountant of Mobil nigeria forged his certificate, please tell me.........

shymexx: That's a strong black woman and a go-getter - and she isn't a feminist....

That's the kind of woman I rate highly; cultured, strong, driven, and family oriented - salute!

iykak47: A real lady does not run her mouth like a burst pipe.

navygrl: This is one of the reasons I divorced my exhusband. He admitted to me that he gangraped 4 girls for refusing to have sex with him or a friend and saw nothing wrong with it. Said they were punishing the girls. As a rape survivor myself I cannot allow such a person to be near my children.

FLYGERIAN91: Every sunday in preparation for d following week.

tayooluwole: how i wish i am d judge...i will just direct that his manhood should be cut off nd hang in a liberary for reference purpose... D colonel deserve severe purnishment...

Wizee: One week is far. She dey agree dat same mins i say helo!!

brainpulse: This also happened during IBB era- People came out to cry that they want him to continue.
This happened during Abacha- 1 million man march for Abacha to stay as a civilian president.
This happened again during Obasanjo's 8 years rule.- Some said they will die if Obasanjo doesnt go for a third time.

Which way Nigeria? Those enjoying from the pot of corruption wants it to continue.

Shollypopz: Yes, I'm mynd_44. I'm also deolumike

Shollypopz: What if I am?? They are intelligent men, absolutely no reason not to

pwettytemmy: I'm getting tired of ur gbagaun. I tot someone advised u to go read ur brighter grammar in a recent thread? Are u still here?

sucess001: Wat I learnt is that after an incompetence laden media chat...d president will go ahead and pay some I.diots to come to nairaland to argue and spit rubbish in a bid to influence public opinion...

wesley80: Eh yah, I see why you were so disappointed. You obviously were expecting GEJ to solve Nigeria's problem through a media chat! Sorry dear, it doesnt work that way.
No one is under any illusion, the country's numerous challenges are obvious to all and the one person feeling the heat is GEJ -take my word for it- Now what's the message when hopelessness pervades like you guys have demonstrated? Simple: Hope, and that's exactly what GEJ has given, anything less and he wont be a leader.
Now what I expect educated folks to do is to objectively and critically evaluate the foundation on which GEJ is building the Hope he's selling to the nation and arrive at a conclusion whether or not he should be given the benefit of doubt but sadly, all I've read are pathetic emotional comments bereft of substance. I think we as a people have got to grow up and understand what the term 'nation building' entails, we all have a role to play in building the country of our dreams and it starts with Giving our brains a chance!

2good: Financial worth of Robert De Niro is $185 Million (http://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-celebrities/actors/robert-de-niro-net-worth/)
Financial worth of Jay Z is $475 Million (http://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-celebrities/richest-rappers/jay-z-net-worth/)
Jay Z's wife Beyonce is worth $300 Million (http://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-celebrities/beyonce-net-worth/)

Why should Jay Z give a fuckkk about De Niro?

shymexx: It seems the unintelligent folks on the thread think revolution means civil war, or they're just feigning ignorance because they benefit directly or indirectly from the corrupt government... Arab Spring in Tunisia and Egypt = revolution... Islamic revolution of Iran, French revolution, Cuban revolution etc. is the type of revolution Nigeria needs...

The death rate in Nigeria is more then 10,000 annually, so Nigerians shouldn't be scared of dying... The roads might be rough at the beginning, however, the end will always justify the means... Someone needs to break this vicious cycle of poverty, corruption, nepotism, filth, underdevelopment, death, destruction etc. Nigeria should be representing the future of the black race, not the rubbish it's right now... I guess that's why I post with anger on NL everyday because we're too blessed and we've too much potentials to be as messed up as we're right now, to be honest...

Smh at the ignorance of nlers...

Aringon: My stand is that ILuMINATI is real whether you believe it or not. Satan does not want to spend eternity alone in hell and he has his strategies to recruit as many faithfuls as possible. In ILLUMINATI, there are ranks and the entertainers(music, actors and actresses) are the lower ranks and there are grand master(rockefellers, the Bush,the royal families throughout europe,the super rich,the former presidents of US, the former PM of UK,Catholic Church yes the Pope is a member etc). Who are those that are controlling the entertainment world, the media etc? Where did you do your research? On the internet right? Who controls what is published on the internet to favour them?

Rockefellers are the master, the own youtube and the like and can determine what goes in there. What do you think is New World Order?
When Kanye West said " I sold my soul to the devil" what do you think it is? Oh he is just rapping right? You guys should open your eyes and see that the end is near, he sold his soul to the devil to get popular(fame and all). Don't just throw this to the dustbin, think man cos it is not a simple matter.

Why did Jay Z compete himself with Jesus Christ by saying his name is Hovah short form of Jehovah. Let me tell you, Jay Z join the Freemanson cult at the age of 12 and has been there and all cult come under Illuminati.

I don't want to disvulge so much here, concentrate in making your path okay with your creator cos the end is at sight but remember a time is coming for the number 666 to be manifested cos if u don't hv it, u will not be able to either buy or sell. Jesus Christ loves you, he died on the cross of calvary for ur sake, turn over to Him for He careth for u and remember, will you spend eternity in Heaven or hell? The choice is yours

lanreni: ...they have a well structured hierachy of which the 'programmed slaves' may never no those calling the shots higher up the triangle.most musicians,artists,artistes,scientists,billionaires,world presidents,captains of industries,etc are slaves of varying degrees.their reward is fame,fortune & continued success.check your life/lifestyle, chances are you are being influenced thru music,cartoons,movie,fashon,gadgets,belief system,etc whether you believe they exist or not....

kokosheen: Dude, I laugh at what you term ignorance, which means you're non-ignorant shey, Ode (I didn't say you're F0Ol ).

The 1st point you raised makes no sense and I doubt if you earn REAL money or run a business. Wake up, everyone is in debt. From the America you all run to, to the countries that make up the Paris club. It doesn't make much common sense to pay-off a whole chunk of how many billions of dollars NOI scammed OBJ to pay in one go, if the debt is structured well. It even acts as a deterrence to other Mofos coming after Obj not to borrow more (Like we've clearly seen, next year the external debt profile will rise to $9 Billion, while domestic is already close to $18Billion (or something in this region)). That money could have been used to execute urgently needed capital projects but no, they had to pay off their masters.
Having a good level of debt is good, that's if you listen to NOI (thank God, she's the same main actor in both govts)

on your 2nd point, your so-called high foreign reserve was a scam because OBJ signed-off on so many power projects (good job on that) whose cash calls didn't come through till after he left (if you know anything about budget phasing/payment structures/plan, you'll appreciate that NOT all commitments are paid for at point of contract/purchase order award). This now brings to question what OBJ spent the $8Billion for power projects in his last 4 years on shey

On your third point, shey you know the period OBJ was in power and left was the when the world financial mess was created by the banking cowboys abi? You cannot create sustainable wealth without a manufacturing industry to support it. That's why out of all the European countries, its the Scandinavian countries and Germany that have withstood the storm (Even Iceland that had the first banking crisis (trigger) has sustained growth). The money was there then and foreign investors flooded the Nigerian market with FX, after the bubble bust, they ran away and the economy has been on shaky mode since (without the worldwide financial crisis, Cecilia Ibru would never have gone to jail , wrong timing).

On your fourth point, what employment did he reduce sit there and be lying to yourself . Whatever employment gain/loss we had in the period and since then, is directly attributed to my statement above as banks were opening branches as if they were competing with RCCG and employing massively to man these branches (of course you know about the subsequent massive lay-off not long after).

On your fifth point, seriously SMH for you. The guy didn't give me nada, he gave licenses to mobile phone providers, no light to power them,no infrastructure to support them, sh1t, those guys had to start from scratch and you're here writing trash. Do you know the amount of kickback OBJ received till he left power?

On a final note, I wouldn't have bothered to respond to you if some people didn't go liking your post and it creates a sad feeling within me that Nigerians are now so bastardized that our mental psyche accepts whatever condition we find ourselves. Dude! OBJ is a traitor to this country and he has NEVER wished well for me and you. All these things you appreciate him for, are crumbs when you see the amount of wealth + potential of the country being wasted. Take a trip to KL and see what a country that came to yours for palm kennel seeds have done for themselves .

shymexx: Good news!

How can I join this revolution? - I'll like to murk a couple of people...

1025: uncle, do u know the difference between growing in Christ and growing in churches? you better start reading ur Bible and stop deceiving urself. if we are growing in Christ as u imagined, how come we are still under the ruler-ship of cultists? do u think Christ lives in a dark country like us? what we have here are churches and nothing more. the day we grow in Christ, a lot of things will change here.

Callotti: People will leave the topic at hand and start insulting others!
Nairaland the great!
